First impressions- by her



She first saw him in a youth program in church. It's a YOUTH program. She wondered why he was there.

Not like she's any younger than him but she was serving and helping out in the program, so her presence was justified.


First thought in her mind, 'I've never seen him before, he must be a new comer, how old is he? He doesnt look like a youth...'


Then after the service she was talking to her friend about the surgical training program. He stood in the circle, listening to their conversations and at times interrupting with random comments.

'Oh , the Royal College of Surgeon is in Melbourne and it is very beautiful! ', he spoke with his Aussie accent.

'duh... who is this man? Quite thick skinned...judging from his funny accent,obviously he's an ABC... ' , she thought. And she wasn't very amused at all, so she carried on with her conversation, completely ignoring him.

1 week later he made his first visit to the connect group, with his herbal chicken.


He was late, herbal chicken arrived AFTER they had their dinner at the start of the meeting. ~~ The chicken drumsticks were huge and unchopped, not a big fan of meat herself, so she was not impressed at all.


It was the first time that she printed out her photos and showed them to the group.

( now she wonders, if she did not do so, would he notice her anyway?)

He saw the photos. ' Wowwwww ...they are beautiful! Why don't you lemme laminate them for you? '

She thought to herself, ' No, don't bring my photos away from me. I don't trust them in your hands....plus you dun look artsy enough to appreciate my work...'

Then when she was talking to her friends about buying a house, she found him standing there in the circle again, adding comments and opinions to their conversations.

Aaahhhh...go away!
